Today our plan was to go into Mexico just to take a geocache. But that turned out to be impossible without taking the car with us to Mexico. We didn't want to do that since you can't take a rental car into Mexico. So we dropped that project.
Instead we drove to Alamogordo, New Mexico. Our original plan was to spend the night here. But since we arrived around lunch time we decided to continue driving. We went to Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation, Mescalero, New Mexico.
On our way to Mescalero we saw snow for the first time on our trip. It was now 34ºF outside. But the roads were snow free and dry so it was no problem driving. It probably had been more difficult driving there early in the morning because the sun wouldn't have had time to melt the snow from the roads.
After spending a little time in Mescalero we drove back to Las Cruces where we spent the night at a Motel 6.
